IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Do not Turn Off the Engine While the Machine is Running

Recommendations for Warming Up the Engine

When the engine is too cold, in addition to accelerating engine wear, decreased fuel
economy may occur. While the engine is running, inspect the thermostat if the coolant
temperature does not reach the appropriate temperature (approx. 75 - 90°C (167 -
194°F)).

• Do not place the starter switch to any
position other than the "DRIVE" position
while running the machine.
If the engine is stopped while running the
machine, the engine may be damaged.
• It is very dangerous because all the electric
circuits for various warning/indicator lights
stop working.
Perform warming-up for approx. 10 minutes.

Be Careful with the Too Cold Engine

WARNING
ADVICE
Do not rev the engine or quickly accelerate
before the engine has sufficiently warmed
up (in other words, when the engine is
cold).
Sufficient amounts of oil may not be
getting to all parts of the engine, and it
may cause a failure.
The exhaust pipe becomes extremely hot
while the engine is idling, so make sure
there is no flammable material such as a
plant, dried grass, paper waste, oil and
old tire nearby before starting warm-up
operation.
